Forvo

Principal function(s): Autonomous learning

Forvo is a website and app that provides audio pronunciations of words and languages in various languages along with their translation. These audio pronunciations are submitted by native speakers worldwide. Forvo was developed by Forvo Media SL and is free to use. Users can listen to pronunciations without signing up or having an account, although registration allows for additional features like contributing pronunciations and saving favorite words. Evaluation: Forvo is a valuable and handy tool for knowing what is the correct way of pronouncing words. With its help, students can autonomously check and learn the pronunciation of words, while teachers can provide the site as a reference resource for pronunciation. Since it is crowdsourced, please consider that some pronunciations may not necessarily be standard. However, users who provide the pronunciation most of the time also indicate whether it belongs to a specific dialect or speech community, so Forvo can be a helpful tool for those seeking to get familiriased with a specific dialect or accent. Basic IT skills are required for its use.

Cost: Free with registration
